Subsidiary of Eli Lilly and Company who develops new molecular imaging agents capable of changing the medical management of significant, chronic human diseases by identifying the first stages of pathological change, potentially assisting in earlier diagnosis, and better management and development of new therapies. The company has developed a radioactive tracer called florbetapir (18F). Florbetapir can be used to detect beta amyloid plaques in patients with memory problems using positron emission tomography (PET) scans, making the company the first to bring to market an FDA-approved method that can directly detect this hallmark pathology of Alzheimer's disease.

National institute that leads the federal government in conducting and supporting research on aging and the health and well-being of older people. The Institute seeks to understand the nature of aging and the aging process, and diseases and conditions associated with growing older, in order to extend the healthy, active years of life. In 1974, Congress granted authority to form NIA to provide leadership in aging research, training, health information dissemination, and other programs relevant to aging and older people. Subsequent amendments to this legislation designated NIA as the primary Federal agency on Alzheimer's disease research. Mission The Institute's mission is to: * Support and conduct genetic, biological, clinical, behavioral, social, and economic research on aging. * Foster the development of research and clinician scientists in aging. * Provide research resources. * Disseminate information about aging and advances in research to the public, health care professionals, and the scientific community,among a variety of audiences. Programs NIA sponsors research on aging through extramural and intramural programs. The extramural program funds research and training at universities, hospitals, medical centers, and other public and private organizations nationwide. The intramural program conducts basic and clinical research in Baltimore, MD, and on the NIH campus in Bethesda, MD.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 4, 2023.Consortium that developed brief, standardized and reliable procedures for the evaluation and diagnosis of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias of the elderly. These procedures included data forms, flipbooks, guidebooks, brochures, instruction manuals and demonstration tapes, which are now available for purchase. The CERAD assessment material can be used for research purposes as well as for patient care. CERAD has developed several basic standardized instruments, each consisting of brief forms designed to gather data on normal persons as well as on cognitively impaired or behaviorally disturbed individuals. Such data permit the identification of dementia based on clinical, neuropsychological, behavioral or neuropathological criteria. Staff at participating CERAD sites were trained and certified to administer the assessment instruments and to evaluate the subjects enrolled in the study. Cases and controls were evaluated at entry and annually thereafter including (when possible) autopsy examination of the brain to track the natural progression of AD and to obtain neuropathological confirmation of the clinical diagnosis. The CERAD database has become a major resource for research in Alzheimer's disease. It contains longitudinal data for periods as long as seven years on the natural progression of the disorder as well as information on clinical and neuropsychological changes and neuropathological manifestations., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

A numeric scale used to quantify the severity of symptoms of dementia (i.e. its stage). Using a structured-interview protocol, a qualified health professional assesses a patient's cognitive and functional performance in six areas: memory, orientation, judgment and problem solving, community affairs, home and hobbies, and personal care. Scores in each of these are combined to obtain a composite score ranging from 0 through 3. (Adapted from Wikipedia)

http://iadrp.nia.nih.gov/content/about-cadro

A classification system developed by the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer's Association that can be used to integrate and compare Alzheimer's disease (AD) research portfolios from public and private organizations supporting AD research in the US and abroad. The CADRO was constructed as a three-tier classification system organized around seven major categories: five in research and two resource-related: * Category A. Molecular Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology of Alzheimer's Disease * Category B. Diagnosis, Assessment and Disease Monitoring * Category C. Translational Research and Clinical Interventions * Category D. Epidemiology * Category E. Care, Support and Health Economics of Alzheimer's Diseases * Category F. Research Resources * Category G. Consortia and Public Private Partnerships * Category H. Alzheimer's Disease - Related Dementias Using information from project abstracts and research aims, the above categories were stratified into research topics and these were further divided into research themes. The three levels of classification are meant to enable a fine-grained portfolio analysis that can inform strategic planning and funding decisions. The CADRO was developed as a dynamic portfolio analysis tool that can be used to: (i) capture the changing landscape of AD research funded by different organizations, (ii) identify opportunities for coordination of support for AD research, and (iii) identify funding gaps as well as areas of overlap within and across organizations.

http://www.uky.edu/coa/ADC

Alzheimer's Disease Center that serves as the focal point for all Alzheimer's disease-related activities at the University of Kentucky and the Commonwealth of Kentucky providing an environment and core resources that catalyze innovative research, outreach, education, and clinical programs. Their ADC plans to build on its historic strengths and capitalize on emerging opportunities to provide an infrastructure that supports research designed to translate knowledge into therapeutic strategies for AD. They focus on two interrelated themes: Transitions and Translation. Their overall emphasis is to more effectively bridge the gap between basic research and clinical studies by facilitating translational efforts. They also carefully characterize transitions across the spectrum of cognitive impairment (normal/ preclinical AD/ MCI/ dementia), with focus on definition of early disease, and continue to support neuropathology as the bedrock of our center. The Alzheimer Disease Center's 2006-2011 grant award from the National Institute on Aging consists of five cores: * Administrative Core * Clinical Core * Biostatistics and Data Management Core * Neuropathology Core * Education & Information Transfer Core

http://www.radiology.ucsf.edu/cind

Biomedical technology research center that develops and validates new imaging methods for detecting brain abnormalities in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, as well as epilepsy, depression, and other conditions associated with nerve loss in the brain. As people around the globe live longer, the impact of neurodegenerative diseases is expected to increase further with dire social and economical consequences for societies if no effective treatments are developed soon. The development at CIND is aimed to improve magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The ultimate goal of the scientific program is to identify imaging markers that improve accuracy in diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases at early stages, achieve more reliable prognoses of disease progression, and facilitate the discovery of effective treatment interventions. In addition to addressing the general needs for studying neurodegenerative diseases, another focus of CIND concerns brain diseases associated with military service and war combat, such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), brain trauma, gulf war illness and the long-term effects of these conditions on the mental health of veterans. The symbiosis between CIND and the Veterans Administration Medical Center in San Francisco makes this program uniquely suited to serve military veterans.
